W NEW ROAD Ml
The road program consists of six
bills, all important. There is the
gineer on all state highway work and
on all county highway work done un
der state supervision, so that expen
ditures may be classified for purposes
of comparison.
Engineer to act in advisory capa-
procedure code, prescribing method j clty tJ counties upon request ofcoun-

tjt opening, laying out and vacat
ing highways, which will end the
confusion attending the three meth
ods at present prevailing, which have
been consolidated and revised into
a practical system.
The county code, another of these
measures, has to do with the expen
ditures of county funds and admin
istration of county road work. The
supervisor system is done away with
and road building centralized under
a road master.
The state highway code provides
procedure for construction of hard-
surfaced highways and for co-opera
tion of county and state in state
highways. It creates a non-salaried
slate highway commission of three,
one member from each congressional
district, severs the state highway en
gineer's department from the state
engineer's office and provides fo'r
the appointment of a highway en-neer.
The act to regulate motor vehicles
the present motor vehicle license tax
es and donates the entire proceeds to
state highway work, under the sup
ervlsion'of the state highway com
mission. It will give upwards of
$300,000 a year for road work.
The Bean-Barrett bonding act
authorizes the issuance, in event re
venues from established sources are
not sufficient to meet allotments of
government road funds of bonds in
an amount equivalent to the defleieiv
cy, and insures expenditure in Ore-
gon of the entire government allot
ment for post roads and forest roads
and an equal sum of Btate money as
is required by the federal act. The
amount of bonds authorized Is $1,-
800,000.
The 86,000,000 bonding act lays
out definite system of state high
way and post roads. State high
ways are to be paved, hard-surfaced
under the provisions of this act. The
bond issue proposed is a capitaliza
tion of the proceeds for the next 25
years of the quarter-mill road levy
that has existed for several years and
the increased motor taxes. These
revenues on the basis of the present
tax valuation and the existing num
ber of automobiles in Oregon, will
amortize not only the 86,000,000, but
the full limit of bonds authorized un
der the Bean-Barrett act. In other
words, issuance of the full amount
of bonds authorized by the Bean
Barrett act do not mean any increase
in taxation. The $6,000,000 pro
posal is to be submitted to vote of
the people at a special election on
June 4.
Of indirect bearing on the road
program is a reduction of the gravity
test for gasoline heretofore estab
lished by law. Government investi
gation has shown the test to be of no
value, but it has made gasoline one
cent a gallon dearer in Oregon. Eli
mination will give Oregon consumers
gasoline at the same price as con
sumers in other states pay. The sav
ing will just about offset the increase
in automobile license taxes in the
course of a year
